Muwatta Malik

موطأ مالك

35
وَحَدَّثَنِي عَنْ مَالِكٍ، أَنَّهُ بَلَغَهُ عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ " مَنْ لَمْ يَجِدْ ثَوْبَيْنِ فَلْيُصَلِّي فِي ثَوْبٍ وَاحِدٍ مُلْتَحِفًا بِهِ فَإِنْ كَانَ الثَّوْبُ قَصِيرًا فَلْيَتَّزِرْ بِهِ " .


Yahya related to me from Malik that he had heard from Jabir ibnAbdullah that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and granthim peace, said, "Let anyone who cannot find two garments pray in onegarment and wrap himself in it, and if the garment is short, let himwrap it around his waist."Malik said, "In my view it ispreferable for someone who prays in a single shirt to put a garment ora turban over his shoulders."
